First-term Democrat Rep. Harley Rouda of California was spotted on a private beach in Orange County — even as he supported Gov. Gavin Newsom’s (D) criticism of communities that kept their beaches open to the public.

In a statement last Thursday, Rep. Rouda criticized communities that had kept their beaches open: “Opening beaches to thousands of Southern Californians during a weekend heat-wave without adequate social-distancing protocols was a reckless action that put the families of California’s 48th district in harm’s way.” However, Rouda himself was seen on a private beach with his family in Orange County last weekend.


California has reverted to the feudal system with lords, dukes, barons and such that have special privileges.

People need to go en masse to that beach this weekend. Obviously it is a safe place from the virus.

“California has reverted to the feudal system with lords, dukes, barons and such that have special privileges.”

They have become shameless and in your face about their double standards. And their media lapdogs continue to carry their water.

It’s incredible.

What’s the point of this article — that he was wrong to walk alone on a private beach?

Well, walking with his family on a resident only beach (which I thought there couldn't be any?) when all public beaches in Orange County were closed by governor's order.

Normal citizens aren't allowed to do that; you'd be ordered off the beach because it is closed, no matter if you were maintaining social distancing or not.

The point is first and foremost, if the media was half honest they would be all over it...

Second, he was out on a very exclusive and wealthy strip of beaches or coves in north Laguna in which most do ot even have access to. During the week while Newsom was scolding the Orange County beach cities especially Newport Beach (conservative), Rouda was out there supporting “Gavin Don’t Surf” on his draconian smack down of Newport and touting how no one should access a beach, meanwhile Rouda and his privilaged family have access to their own....

I thought there were no private beaches in California?

I know the rich types in Malibu (David Geffen) have been blocking access for decades so types like us don’t spoil their view. Problem is, you can’t “own” the beach, they get taken to court and lose every time.

Is it different in Orange County?

Harley Rouda never should have been elected to represent that area, which was once a Republican stronghold.

It has always been this way with socialism/communism, those that have at the top and everyone else below providing for them.

If it had been a Republican, the media would have been all over it and it would be national, if not international news.

As it is, I didn’t even see this in the local paper and I live in Southern California.

Comrades, please do not think for a moment that Harley Rouda was enjoying himself walking on the private beach while you are confined to your homes. Science has shown that Congressional Representatives require large amounts of vitamin D to ward off the Wuhan virus. Harley is quite sensitive to the sun and burns easily, but is willing to sacrifice his personal discomfort to be able to represent you in Congress.

He beat Dana Rohrabacher who was my Congressman. Dana was a nice guy, but he was a weak Candidate past his prime. I knew he was toast after meeting him at a Neighbor’s gettogether and listening to his Tales of yesteryear.

He moved his Family to Maine after the Election.

It was actually very sad knowing he was a dead man walking and my Home of 35 Years would be handed over to a Rat, a Rat supported by Soros no less.

We sold our House and left my once wonderful Orange County six months later.
